Unable to Play On-Line Games

Hi
I've been having trouble playing online games on my new Imac. For example I play one particular game on candystand.com called Bullpen Blast. First when I try going to the site of the particular game it asks me to download a particular software (Abode Media Player). I did it. After doing this the game still does not load. I've been experiencing this with other online games. I do understand that many games do not work on Apple Computers but I thought online games are suppose to work.
Please advise.
Happy Holidays.

If you want to try to make it work with Safari, there are a few things that may help.
You can reset Safari, which is a command under the Safari menu.
For odd issues, it sometimes helps to remove the Safari user preference file to let a fresh one be created. It is located here; drag it to your Desktop.
<user home folder>/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
Online games probably use Flash, so you can try going to Adobe.com and downloading/installing the latest Flash.

  • Unable to play on line games. plugin was disabled with forefox 5. What do I do to fix this?

    Not able to play on line games. Sites say plugin has been disabled. The only plugin disabled was Metastream 3 due to security by McAfee. What can I do to be able to play on line games?

    Was that Plugin disabled by Firefox 5.0 due to "compatibility"? <br />
    Or by McAfee?
    If McAfee has a problem with the "security" of that Plugin, it would best to ask them about that issue. <br />

    I updated my firefox browser and now am unable to play ANY pogo games. and yes my java is up to date

    Hi..
    If you are referring to video streamed on YouTube or other sites that require the Flash plugin, try troubleshooting.
    Quit Safari.
    Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Storage tab. Click: Delete All
    Now uninstall the Flash plugin then reinstall new >  Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
    Very important to uninstall the currently installed Flash plugin first.
    Relaunch Safari.  From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
    Now try a video.
    BTW... if you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video from streaming. It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
    And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to:  Open in 32 bit mode  is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari.
    Tip... when you post for help, please tell us which Mac OS X you have installed

  • Unable to play online multiplayer games!?

    Whenever I go to play Town of Salem (online multiplayer game) or even any other gaming websites, it takes me to a page stating that I need to update my Flash Player to a version 11.9? or higher even though (triple checking regularly) my flash player is on version 17.1.1. I have uninstalled and reinstalled my flash player 4 times now and it still doesn't work and my Firefox is up to date too. Not too sure whether it is a problem on my side or just the flash player doesn't like playing games on my laptop anymore.
    If it helps, I have another laptop (different brand) that has updated flash player and it plays games really smoothly.

    Manufacturer: Acer
    Model: Aspire 5253G
    Processor: AMD E-350
                    Processor 1.60 GHz
    Installed memory RAM:  4.00GB (3.73 GB usable)
    System Typer: 64-bit Operating System
    Flash Player Version: 17.0.0.169
    Your OS: Windows 7 (64bit)
    Your Browser: Mozilla Firefox, 37.0.2 (latest update)
    My sister has also told me she had a very similar problem only that it was facebook games that weren't working. She fixed the problem by switching some option "on" that was turned off by someone else.

  • Not able to play my favorite game on Macbook

    Hi
    I recently converted to apple by buying a Macbook. However, I am unable to play my favorite game - Catan online from zone.msn.com - on this computer.
    Anyone has an idea whether it is possible?
    thanks
    macbook   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    My advice is to learn to love a new game.
    Installing an entire operating system to play one web-based game is a lot of time and effort especially since you have to restart the computer anytime you want to play. You might try old versions of internet explorer for the Mac (currently unsupported but they might work) as well as firefox. There's probably some chance you can get it to work but again, its better to learn to play a new game since the internet has millions than to install windows xp just for a web game.

    Did you install the W8.1 graphics driver from your notebook's support and driver page?

    Hi Madhuama, I'll try to give you a hand with this. First off, what OS is running on your notebook, what game are you attempting to play, and how is it not working? Is it not installing?

  • Unable to play games after Adobe Flash Player 15?

    Hi, over 1 week of trying to solve Adobe Flash Player 15 problems I am at the end of my rope and even considering getting rid of my computer.
    I have Windows 7 and I enjoy playing on CNN's game site.  As I said I have not been able to play for over 1 week.  It will allow me to play 'Metro Match' and 'Find It' but not what I enjoy the most - jigsaw, mahjongg to name two.
    I tried the prior instruction twice and still unable to play.  Can anyone help, I thank you all for listening.

  • Unable to play any games in iOS 6

    Unable to Play any games after updating my iOS to 6 in iPhone 4. the application always continues to ask for the apple id password repeatedly.

    Try a data or application disk or DVD.
    If no disks are mounting on the desktop then your drive is still on the fritz and you should return to the place of previous repair and ask them politely to "repair it correctly".
    Before taking it back in, you might want to attempt to clear the PRAM and NVRAM.
    Command + Option + P + R to clear PRAM
    And
    Command + Option + O + F to boot into Open Firmware.
    reset-nvram (press the return key)
    set-defaults (press the return key)
    reset-all (press the return key)
    The Mac will reboot.

  • Unable to play Yahoo Games (Missing Plug-in) w/ Mac Book Air

    Just purchased this MacBook Air...first time Mac user, and I'm unable to play yahoo spades on it. I've tried downloading Google Chrome but it still says "Missing Plug In"
    I've been playing Yahoo spades since '03 so I'm pretty attached to it....would love to know how to get this to work...thank you
    And I love the Air by the way so far!!

    Yahoo games use internet plug-ins such as adobe flash and java. They do not come preinstalled with your mac and you have to install them manually.
    I'm assuming you are using OS X Lion. Here are the download resources:

  • Whenever i open certain apps i get the connect to itunes for push notifications over and over again and im unable to play the game, how do i fix this?

    hey guys i have a question,
    so i have the same problem for two of my apps, one is biike race, and the other game is snap chat. so each time i open one of these games i repeatedly get the "connect to itunes for push notifications" box coming up, and im unable to play the game, and i have to click my home button multiple times to get back to the main screen. i dont understand why this is happening and maybe you could help me out.

    There are a few other threads in this forum regarding this issue. It appears to me that this was once an issue with the iPhone, but has now started up again after the upgrade to iOS 4. My iPod Touch is ~ 2 years old and has had absolutely no problems. It is not jailbroken or altered in any way.
    This pop-up started for me after upgrading to iOS 4. I did the restore to factory, reinstalled my apps and the problem returned. It appears my push notifications are working, which is good, but I have to click through the pop-up every time I enter an app that uses notifications.
    This will go away when Apple fixes it.

  • Qosmio X870 -GTX 670M - unable to play any games

    Hi,
    I received this new laptop about 3 weeks ago and since than i'm unable to play any games using the GTX 670M GPU. I'm able to access the game menu but within 30 second of playing any game i get a black screen and it takes me back to the desktop.
    I have updated the driver and it shows in the device manager it is working properly. I have reinstalled the whole computer to factory setting but still the same problem. The strange thing is that i'm able to play all the games using the basic Intel HD 4000 GPU but not the GTX 670M. Please if any can help me i would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank You

    Hi
    >I have updated the driver and it shows in the device manager it is working properly.
    Maybe you should use another driver from nVidia page.
    There are also some 3rd party pages providing modified drivers.
    Im thinking about the www.omegadrivers.net or www.laptopvideo2go.com pages.
